The brain is a fascinating and complex organ. It’s the primary control center for our whole body, and it can be affected by stress in many different ways. Stress itself is an important part of life – it helps us prepare for danger or respond to emergencies. But when we’re constantly stressed out, that’s when our brain starts to pay the price. This blog post will explore how stress affects your brain, both positively and negatively, so you can develop strategies to reduce your brain’s vulnerability to its harmful effects.

In this episode I speak with Dr Mithu Storoni, an eye surgeon & neuroscience researcher-turned writer. She is the author of "Stress Proof". 

This episode taught me so much about the neurobiology of stress and how to combat stress in your life.

In most cases, your genes have less than five per cent to do with your risk of developing a particular disease, in fact the vast majority of diseases, including many cancers, diabetes, and Alzheimer's disease, have a genetic contribution of 5 to 10 per cent at best.

To learn more about this I brough Dr Mike Malin and Dr Mike Stone from Wild Health on the podcast today to talk about all genomics based medicine. At Wild Health, they combine an in-depth genetic analysis with extensive blood work and a lifestyle assessment to provide you with a fully comprehensive picture of your health like you’ve never seen it before. You’ll receive a 50+ page report covering everything from your optimal diet, exercise and supplement routine to your risks of chronic disease and prevention strategies. 

You also get paired with a dedicated doctor and health coach who will help you understand and apply the biggest opportunities for maximizing your health.

What I personally love is that they focus on brain health too - everything from dementia & Alzheimer's risk to overall inflammation. 
They even look at specific genes around your circadian rhythm to help you optimize a sleep routine.

Robbie Bent is the CEO and Co-Founder of Othership, a platform for breathwork, connection, and mental wellness. This is a part II to our series with Robbie Bent. Be sure to check out the first episode which is linked below.

This particular episode is all about heat and cold. Heat from sauna and hot tub therapy improves cardiovascular and metabolic health by stimulating heat shock proteins that initiate a downstream series of favorable health improvements.

Cold exposure has many health (metabolic and immune) benefits. I have a cold tub at home in Australia and I miss it so much! I'm excited for you all to listen to this episode and find out why heat and cold are so beneficial for you.
